How is the theoretical weight of spiral steel pipe calculated?

  The theoretical weight of steels is obtained by calculating nominal dimensions and density (which is called specific weight in the past). This is directly related with the steel length, the cross section area, and the allowable size deviation. Because of the allowable deviation in the process of manufacturing, the calculated theoretical weight […]

Corrosion Resistance of API 5L Pipeline Steel with Coating Protection

ABSTRACT The corrosion resistances of enamel-coated steel pipe in  3.5 wt% NaCl solution was evaluated and compared with those of epoxy-coated pipe using open-circuit potential, linear po- larization resistance, and electrochemical impedance spectros- copy tests. T-001c enamel slurry and GP2118 enamel powder were sprayed to steel pipe in wet and […]

Casing pipe application in high-temperature gas wells

In recent years, with the decreasing number of easily exploitable oil and gas wells, it has become necessary for oil and gas wells to go deeper on both underground and underwater. And, tubing and casing strings are subjected to higher temperature and higher pressure in these wells, which would probably […]

Properties of Galvanized Steel Pipe Welds

Properties of Galvanized Steel Pipe Welds Galvanizing has been used to protect iron and steel from rusting for over a hundred years in places as diverse as the wire rope used for the suspension cables on the Brooklyn Bridge to gutters on houses. Galvanizing is simply coating of zinc over […]

Why not galvanizing after welding for steel pipe

Why not galvanizing after welding Why not avoid the whole problem of welding galvanized steel pipe sheets after galvanizing? After all, steel products are always galvanized after manufacture, because there has been no practical way to restore the galvanizing effect after welding. Zinc plating after manufacture is still conventional, but […]

A333 Grade 6 Low Carbon Steel in Pipelines – Microstructural Characterization and Hardness Properties

M. N. Ervina Efzan*, S. Kesahvanveraragu, J. Emerson   1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Offshore Pipeline Material Pipelines in offshore platform are made up of various types of materials. Selection of material relies upon certain considerations such as cost, functional requirement, operating conditions of pressure and temperature, corrosion rate and so forth [1-2]. Since there […]
